Iced green tea is great in the summer -- it's cool, it's got that slight bitter edge, and it's full of healthy antioxidants. You can keep this in a pitcher in the refrigerator and drink it whenever you need something to help you cool down. I make it with decaffeinated green tea so I don't get all wired. I have also made it using "green tea with mint" and that was excellent chilled. This proportion assumes you are going to pour it over ice; you could probably water it down a bit if you are going to drink it without ice. I never sweeten my green tea, so I can't tell you how much honey or sweetener to use, but that's a matter of personal taste anyway. I got this idea from a box of Celestial Seasonings brand green tea.

Although I modified it quite a bit, I still needed someone to tell me how to make it, and this is definitely the way to go! Used 6 cups of water total, 4 green tea bags, 2 chai tea bags, 3 splenda packets and 2 tablespoons of honey. MMMMMMMM. Thanks! Been hitting the spot all week!
